For those of us that couldn't make it to the show in Orlando, here is a video showing a brief look at the Bachmann display at 2:15 in the video. I'm surprised none of the new rolling stock from this year's announcements made it on display since it didn't take much time for last year's announcements, same with the large scale spiteful brake van.

Curiously enough, all of the engines currently available in HO made it on display except for James…

*Insert overly-excited posts about how the new paint scheme for James will happen below*

Actually, Paxton was announced six months ago. Already half a year has passed. The next announcements are half a year from now.

Due to how things have been going, we probably shouldn't expect a Bachmann Daisy anytime soon. Because of economics, we've only been getting tank engines and diesel shunters. Daisy's chances have been getting slimmer, despite all her recent appearances in the show.

I have no idea what's taking so long for Rheneas. Maybe they're trying to get a HUGE supply, because we know Skarloey can't stay in stock for 60 seconds.

If Rheneas ends up being delayed til next spring, he'll be the next Oliver, who's already the most delayed product in Bachmann Thomas history. I doubt that though. Rheneas might get released in December.

Once again I throughly enjoyed the episode you made for your series. Both your layout as well as your models looked great in the episode, and I enjoyed the relationships between some of characters most notably the one shown with Thomas and Percy before Percy's crankpin broke. That moment alone felt like something from the classic series. The latter half was good too even though it felt too similar to Toad's Adventure it was still very entertaining. Your Toad voice is spot on!

Keep up the good work, as always please feel free to keep us posted with your work.
